This is a reminder that lead poisoning is a global concern. Governments across the world must prioritize stopping production or importation of lead products to protect our children.
As an organization, we will continue advocating for children’s health as children are the leaders and brand ambassadors for health in future.
Children’s Environmental Health Foundation-CEHF is currently in Lusaka conducting stakeholder meetings with Zambia Environmental Management Agency(ZEMA), Zambia Compulsory Standards Ministry of Water Development, Sanitation and Environmental Protection.
These meetings are for the sole purpose of spearheading a statutory framework around the use of lead in paint and phasing out of dental amalgam in dental institutions with the aforementioned organizations in our quest to promote a healthy and environmentally friendly nation.
CEHF is calling for all African countries to work together through our Governments as a team so that Africa be the first continent with mercury –free dentistry considering that the current amount of dental amalgam used in Africa is much closer to zero than in other continents.
The mercury in dental amalgam is toxic to the patient and dentist.
There is no capacity in most countries in Africa to dispose off amalgam waste and is very costly.
This is one of our focuses in advocating against the use of lead in paint. We will continue encouraging our partners and stakeholders to promote sustainable health.
